Update

I wish I had a more exciting update, but I've pretty much been sitting at home for the past 8 days. I went to the doctor (again) yesterday. He didn't want to see me, but luckily the teacher I was with made him. He decided that I need to have an endoscopy, but he can't fit me in until Thursday.

I'm a little unhappy with the lack of urgency in Japan. I'm not surprised that people keep dying in ambulances here, because they're being sent from hospital to hospital. I may have better health insurance, but that doesn't mean I have good health care.

Anyway, I'm doing my best to hold out till then. Thanks for all your prayers!
